If one (or both) of your lift bolts are broken, is it hard to get out?
And does anyone know what the name of the bolts are?

not fun if you rocker shaft has rotated, wedging the bolt in there...at least that is what I am dealing with right now...if they aren't rotated, you should be able to walk to bolt out using an extractor, just don't his the threads of the hole
the intake bolt tends to break more often
it is considered a bolt/flange at toyota

when one of mine broke (when i went to change them, the head snapped off on removal) i was able to drive the car without causing any damage to the car.
Drove the car very slowly though, about 3k rpm all the way to a garage that had done one before, then he removed it for me.
Using a snappon extrator set i think.
if its rotated as said above though you will have problems.

Every thing that he said here... its only like .89 cents per bolt when i replaced mines a couple years ago... im sure its still the same...
